For me at least, an AMD/Intel desktop box plus its multi-year power bill still is likely to come out cheaper than a comparable Apple desktop or high-end laptop plus its multi-year power bill. The lower-end Apple laptops are not an option for me due to the "one external display" limitation. Competing ARM desktop hardware is not an option for me due to insufficient performance - I might as well not upgrade at all.

FWIW, I was a long-time dual monitor user who migrated down to one due to MacBook support. I still have dual monitors at the office, and find my home setup broadly comparable - I use a 34” ultrawide with my MacBook mounted on a monitor arm next to it and serving as a second monitor. (Obviously doesn’t scale to >2 monitors.)
